Double Chocolate Avocado Ice Cream (Dairy Free)

We all scream for ice cream, right? Well if you are living a dairy-free ice cream, then you might not be chanting along as enthusiastically. Fortunately, we have this awesome recipe for dairy-free double chocolate avocado ice cream – yum! Made with nutritious avocados, coconut milk, honey, cocoa powder, vanilla, salt, and chocolate chips, you can actually feel terrific about eating a whole bowl of ice cream 😉

“I was really excited last week when I got a new ice cream maker. I couldn’t wait to use it. The only problem was, I was out of milk, and my raw milk pick-up wouldn’t be for a few more days. I decided to get creative and make something dairy-free. I make an avocado pudding that is similar to this recipe. I figured if I just made a few minor changes and churned it in the ice cream machine, I would get a texture similar to ice cream. It worked, and it is oh so good! The avocadoes make it super creamy. If you don’t like avocadoes, you can’t even taste them, and I bet no one will even be able to guess this secret ingredient!

Make sure your chocolate chips are dairy-free. I like Equal Exchange chocolate chips because they are organic and soy-free, but they are also naturally dairy-free. If you want to make this recipe completely vegan, substitute real maple syrup for the raw honey. I recommend making your own coconut milk to avoid BPA in canned coconut milk, and just because it’s more economical!”
